Perimeter Solutions, the global leader in the production of fire retardants, foams, and water enhancing gels, along with a wide range of services for managing wildland, industrial, municipal, and military fires, today announced the company’s FIRE-TROL® brand fire retardant is once again being used to protect exposed vegetation in the urban setting adjacent to the Monaco Formula One Grand Prix race course.
Monaco’s municipality department in charge of parks, gardens and related maintenance is applying the fire retardant as a preventative pre-treatment during the period of the Grand Prix race to protect the urban vegetation environment, including pine trees, that surround the Circuit de Monaco racecourse.
Perimeter Solutions’ PHOS-CHEK® and FIRE-TROL brand long-term retardants have been successfully used around the world for decades to prevent wildland fires and to mitigate risks of ignition. Applied preventatively, long-term retardant can be effective in preventing fires from igniting for months.
